What to know about each route
Stonehenge and Bath
This is a useful starting point for a first England vacation: two distinct destinations without adding a village stop. Decide whether your Bath priority is the Roman Baths, architecture, or time to explore on foot.
Listed from £625 per vehicle. Admission tickets are purchased separately. Your vehicle and final price depend on the party's requirements. View the Stonehenge and Bath tour.
Cotswolds Villages and Countryside
Use the proposed itinerary to decide what appeals most, then tell us whether you prefer longer stops or more variety. You do not need to turn every village into a lengthy walk to enjoy the day.
Listed from £545 per vehicle. Larger vehicles have different prices; request the option suitable for your group. View the private Cotswolds tour.
Stonehenge, Cotswolds and Bath
Combine Stonehenge, a village stop, and Bath. This route suits travelers who value variety and are comfortable with less time at each destination than a more focused itinerary would allow.
Listed from £645 per vehicle. Confirm the village stop and attraction entry plans when arranging your day. View the Stonehenge, Cotswolds and Bath tour.
Dover, Leeds Castle and Canterbury
This southeast England route offers a different choice from Stonehenge and Bath. Ask about the time available at each stop and which paid visits make sense together. Seeing an attraction from outside and touring its interior require different amounts of time.

A successful custom day begins with what you most want to experience. We can then discuss what fits around it. Discuss a custom tour.
What to expect from a private day tour
You travel with your own party in a private vehicle. Pickup and drop-off are agreed as part of your booking; check the individual tour for available locations.
Within the agreed route, opening hours, and ticket times, discuss how you would like to divide the day. More time at one stop may mean a shorter visit elsewhere. Changes involving extra distance or time need agreement.
A private driver and a guide accompanying you inside every attraction are different services. Check the tour's inclusions if specialist or interior guiding matters to you.
How private tour pricing works
The published starting price is for a vehicle option. It is not a per-person admission package, and it may not be the price of the larger vehicle your group needs.
For an accurate quote, send:
- Your date and preferred route.
- The number of adults and children, with children's ages.
- Your pickup address and requested drop-off.
- Any luggage, stroller, or other space requirements.
- Any attraction tickets already purchased.
Check admission, meals, and any other exclusions alongside the transport price. The starting prices above were checked on October 29, 2026 and may change.
If you are comparing with a bus excursion, our private versus coach guide explains how to compare equivalent totals.
Booking from the USA
You can begin planning before you arrive in England. Use your inquiry to explain the shape of your vacation: your hotel dates, which days are free, and whether the tour follows a flight or precedes another commitment.
Please spell out the month in your travel date. If you have children, walking limitations, or special vehicle requirements, mention them at the start so we can check suitability before you make other arrangements.
For timed attractions, agree the route and recommended admission times before buying tickets.
